Tommy Robinson was arrested yesterday morning and charged with an offence under the Terrorism Act 2000.

It appears this is related to his refusal to give up the pin code for his mobile phone, which is an offence under Schedule 7 of the Act.

It was a similar refusal which earned Britain First leader Paul Golding a conviction under the Act in 2020 after being detained on his return from Russia.

According to Golding, who posted online about the arrest, Robinson was arrested at the Eurotunnel terminal at Folkestone. We know from other sources that he was then held by the Counter-Terrorism Command at Medway, Kent, before being released on bail last night.

Which is all very odd: Tommy is due in court today to answer contempt of court charges, and there is a real possibility he will be jailed.

So what was he doing at Eurotunnel…?
